Janson Junk outduels former Marlin Trevor Rogers as Miami beats Orioles 6-0

BALTIMORE (AP) — Janson Junk allowed five hits over seven innings to prevail in a pitcher's duel with former Marlins standout Trevor Rogers, Derek Hill drove in two runs and Xavier Edwards homered to help Miami beat the Baltimore Orioles 6-0 on Saturday.

Dane Myers had two hits and scored a run for the Marlins, who cranked up their offense in the latter innings after being held to one single by Rogers through the sixth.

Junk (4-1) walked none and struck out two in the longest outing of his career. The right-hander had only two perfect innings, but repeatedly came up with the right pitch when it mattered.

Rogers (2-1) was facing his former team for the first time since being traded last July for Kyle Stowers and Connor Norby. The lefty was lifted with two outs in the seventh of a scoreless game after allowing a single to Myers.

Gregory Soto promptly hit Stowers with a pitch and Hill followed with an RBI single. Miami padded the margin with a run in the eighth and pulled away with a four-run ninth, capped by Edwards' two-run drive off Scott Blewett.

Rogers gave up two hits — both to Myers — and notched a season-high eight strikeouts.

Stowers denied Baltimore's bid to jump on top in the first inning, throwing out Gunnar Henderson at the plate from right field on a two-out single by Ryan O'Hearn.

The Orioles didn't get another runner in scoring position until the sixth.

The departure of Rogers opened the door for Miami to crank up its offense against Baltimore's poor bullpen.

Baltimore extended its streak of drawing a walk to a franchise-record 172 consecutive games when O'Hearn drew a base on balls leading off the ninth.

Orioles rookie Brandon Young (0-3, 6.14 ERA) seeks his first big league victory Sunday in a matchup against the Marlins and 22-year-old Eury Pérez (2-2, 4.00).

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. (AP) — President Donald Trump on Sunday fired off another warning to the government of Cuba as the close ally of Venezuela braces for potential widespread unrest after Nicolás Maduro was deposed as Venezuela's leader.

Cuba, a major beneficiary of Venezuelan oil, has now been cut off from those shipments as U.S. forces continue to seize tankers in an effort to control the production, refining and global distribution of the country's oil products.

Trump said on social media that Cuba long lived off Venezuelan oil and money and had offered security in return, “BUT NOT ANYMORE!”

“THERE WILL BE NO MORE OIL OR MONEY GOING TO CUBA - ZERO!” Trump said in the post as he spent the weekend at his home in southern Florida. “I strongly suggest they make a deal, BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE.” He did not explain what kind of deal.

The Cuban government said 32 of its military personnel were killed during the American operation last weekend that captured Maduro. The personnel from Cuba’s two main security agencies were in Caracas, the Venezuelan capital, as part of an agreement between Cuba and Venezuela.

“Venezuela doesn’t need protection anymore from the thugs and extortionists who held them hostage for so many years,” Trump said Sunday. “Venezuela now has the United States of America, the most powerful military in the World (by far!), to protect them, and protect them we will.”

Trump also responded to another account’s social media post predicting that his secretary of state, Marco Rubio, will be president of Cuba: “Sounds good to me!” Trump said.

Trump and top administration officials have taken an increasingly aggressive tone toward Cuba, which had been kept economically afloat by Venezuela. Long before Maduro's capture, severe blackouts were sidelining life in Cuba, where people endured long lines at gas stations and supermarkets amid the island’s worst economic crisis in decades.

Trump has said previously that the Cuban economy, battered by years of a U.S. embargo, would slide further with the ouster of Maduro.

“It’s going down,” Trump said of Cuba. “It’s going down for the count.”
